Apparently he's a big time elite kicker once committed to Colorado Buffs.
If that kid from OU flips ND's way, . . .
And the Colorado offense would have given him far more long distance attempts than the Irish.
So Bryan's coming to ND knowing he (likely) won't get the PK job in year 1. Maybe he'll handle KOs. It's a strong pick up regardless, . . one that doesn't really show up in "recruiting rankings."
I posted the link below, but take a look at his kicks under "normal" atmospheric conditions.

Strong leg.
if that makes any difference. A punter too, that is great.

He's got a strong, accurate leg from either side of the hash marks, and can also punt. His mechanics are sound, very consistent, and it looks effortless and relaxed when he does a long kick.
What I especially like about him, is that he can hit those 60 yard FG's without needing any extra steps while advancing towards the ball. It's almost like a "quick kick" for most kickers.
While it's a "practice" video, it's still pretty darn impressive.
